#Hopefloats Please Support the 2022 floods

Like you we are watching our  Mates in Northern NSW and Queensland affected by these devastating floods. We know that Aussies are resilient and strong. We know that these communities have a strong sense of pride and will no doubt support each other as best as possible. 

But if I know anything at all it is that at times

START SPREADING THE NEWS....

FRIDAY 17TH SEPTEMBER

We know that our Australian Farmers are resilient. With Drought, fires, floods and now the Mouse plague. The problem is so severe that mice are biting people whilst they lay in their beds. With the Mouse plague stretching across NSW to Southern QLD, Northern Victoria and into South Australia. The mice have caused hundreds of thousands of dollars of damage to farmers crops, fodder and homes. The financial destruction, and the experience of the plague is impacting our farmers yet again.


So please speak with your schools, workplaces and kindergartens about getting behind A fiver for a Farmer Day 2021. 

MY NEW BIG IDEA! WILL YOU JOIN ME?

March 2021 update

You guys know that I love a big idea!

You know that I love to share them with all that want to hear! So for 2021 my idea is clear.

  

Throughout the last few years our Aussie farmers have battled drought, fires, floods and now a global pandemic. 

Throughout it all with smiles on their faces, when there should have been tears, they set about providing us with fuel for our bodies. 

So they definitely have a story to tell. 

Each Rural town I have visited, I’ve seen just how important the Local post office is. It is sometimes the only shop in town, it may be the local corner store too. So lets keep them busy! Lets bring back old fashioned Penpals… or in my words – Mail Mates! 

We can bridge the gap between the beaches and the bush. We can get people talking. We can share our daily experiences and connect and grow together.. 

Through it we will learn how to correctly address an envelope, write a letter and post it. So lets get writing!

lego - rebuild the world campaign

 

When the world paused due to the recent lockdown it didn’t put a stop to the creativity and resilience of children.

Now, to celebrate the endless imagination and unique ingenuity that kids possess, the LEGO Group has unveiled an awe-inspiring installation – a 13ft globe – which showcases a build created by Jack Berne, Founder of A Fiver for A Farmer.
